Hogwarts Summoning Guide
Chapter 91 The Great Old Ones
The mentor seemed to stare at Bai Lin for a while before saying, "It seems there's much you don't know. I'm not a great storyteller... but since you've come to me, let me tell you all about it..."
The words of the trial mentor seemed to be filled with magic, causing Bai Lin and Lulu to see some illusions: a dazzling galaxy, explosions and destruction, reunion and rebirth, seemingly an eternal repetition in the universe.
The judge said, "In the boundless universe, there are many human worlds, and you were created from many different types, but you have all been favored by God..."
The universe has gone through countless eras. The first gods have long since vanished into the abyss of time and dimensions. Since then, many new gods have been born. Some are passionate about creating order and civilization for planets with potential, while others only want to endlessly absorb matter, and still others only think about destruction and returning to nothingness...
The gods have waged countless wars, which have affected many worlds. Some worlds collapsed as a result, while others were elevated as a result.
Ultimately, however, some of the gods were banished to the endless void. These gods, known as Outer Gods, are far removed from our understanding and comprehension, and will never cross paths with us again in the short and insignificant history of humankind.
The remaining gods established the Pantheon, the cornerstone of worldly order. However, they decided to create only the most basic order for each planet and never interfere with the birth, development, or extinction of life and civilization.
Many human civilizations around the world have some fragments about the pantheon. Even the word "pantheon" comes from the myths created by newly born humans many eras later. People have shaped the gods into all sorts of images, and surprisingly, legends of the Old Gods and Outer Gods have appeared among them.
Although the Pantheon decided to no longer interfere with life and civilization, there are always some gods who have an inexplicable fondness for humanity, such as the sun god.
The sun god has many names in many worlds. Even in one human world, some tribes call him Apollo, some call him Ra, and some call him Xihe... But they all have one thing in common: they love humankind.
During his observation of humanity, the Sun God was astonished to discover that humans were aware of the existence of the Old Gods. Through his investigation, he learned that although the Old Gods resided in the void beyond human comprehension and perception—a distance that could not be described as mere distance—their thoughts and minions had entered the human world at the very beginning of civilization, even controlling and dominating its development for a period of time. They were known as the Old Ones.
The Pantheon would certainly not allow such a situation to occur, but no god believed the Sun God's investigation and speculation. Instead, they blamed him for paying too much attention to humanity. In the end, the Sun God could only seek his representatives among humanity to eliminate or expel the minions of the old gods from the dimensions of faith and physical existence, and he won countless victories.
But no one knows how many hidden minions are still lurking in the universe, or when they will reappear.
Although these minions are weak compared to the gods, they are the Outer Gods of humanity, capable of ruling or destroying the human world.
The extraterrestrial evil spirit you mentioned is exactly that kind of existence.
There was a lot of information, and it took Bai Lin and Lulu a while to digest it and understand it.
"Aliens!" Bai Lin summed it up with three words.
"Evil aliens with the intention of ruling humanity!" Lulu added, and the two exchanged a smile.
"The world you live in has a very well-established order and faith. This order and faith have created an invisible protective shield for the world, making it generally difficult for external gods to invade..."
However, for unknown reasons, a tiny crack appeared in this invisible shield. Although only the weakest minions of the Old Gods could squeeze through the crack, and it could not survive independently, once it combined with an intelligent life form, it would still possess the power to threaten the world.
"It sounds a bit like a symbiote..." Bai Lin didn't say the word "venom" out loud: "Then how can I obtain the power of the Sun God and defeat this weak minion?" He emphasized the word "weak".
The Judgment Instructor pointed to the Summoning Manual on Bai Lin's shoulder and said, "You possess the treasure of the Sun God. Absorb it, fuse with it!"
Lulu looked around at Bai Lin, but she couldn't see anything.
Bai Lin noticed the points section on the encyclopedia: 2516. Could it be that if he lit up the entire encyclopedia, some incredible change would occur? However, that thick encyclopedia already recorded several thousand creatures, with many blank pages. Even if Bai Lin disregarded the external impact and desperately tried to seal them, it would be impossible to complete the entire encyclopedia in less than ten or twenty years, traveling to every corner of the world.
However, Bai Lin did not intend to show this problem to Lulu. He had basically figured out the origin of the second demon king and was immediately quite troubled. After thinking about it, although he could find a place to hide and live a life of ignoring these big bosses, they all wanted to rule humanity or destroy the world. Even if he ran to the ends of the earth, he could not avoid these problems.
Just as Bai Lin considered the option of eking out a living, a single sentence from the Judgment Mentor pulled him back to reality: "The treasures of the Sun God will attract the minions of the Old Ones. They will actively seek you out, control you, and assimilate you. Your time is running out, but you are not fighting alone. In the order created by the Pantheon, once the protection of faith is breached, there will naturally be a mechanism to deal with it. Other awakened beings will appear, and you will encounter them!"
Bai Lin groggily returned from his soul state, feeling utterly weak and almost collapsing from exhaustion. The summoning encyclopedia on his shoulder emitted a faint glow, and Bai Lin felt some warmth, which gave him some strength.
Lulu wasn't feeling so well. Her face was pale, and she stumbled. Bai Lin caught her. Lulu turned her head and glanced at Bai Lin shyly. Only then did Bai Lin realize that he seemed to have touched a part he shouldn't have. He awkwardly moved his arm away. Lulu used her arm to support Bai Lin's chest and it took her almost two minutes to recover.
"Um... I can stand up by myself now..." Lulu said softly as her face regained color and even became slightly flushed.
Bai Lin quickly released Lulu and casually changed the subject, saying, "This time it's probably a serious situation that endangers all wizards and Muggles... If the Seekers' families could expand their intelligence network and try to find these Awakened Ones, it should help in dealing with the crisis..."
Lulu seemed lost in thought, then glanced at Bai Lin and said, "Cousin Kaili... I'll have Kaka cooperate with you. He'll let you know as soon as there's any news..."
